TSH should be closer to 1.0
fT3 is the active thyroid hormone and is above mid-range, so odd that TSH is up.
Disregard the thyroid lab ranges.
Please eval overall thyroid function by checking oral body temperatures as per the thyroid basics sticky. That will settle some possibilities.
Have you always used [should] iodized salt?
Yes, thyroid can impact other hormones.
Elevated TSH suggests that hypothalamus not seeing fT3, noting that rT3 is OK; or a thyroid pathology that TSH is trying to overcome.
FT is low, suggesting that SHBG is elevated, creating more T+SHBG that exaggerates TT, creating a false reading of your T status.
Labs:
TT
FT
E2
LH/FSH
prolactin
CBC
hematocrit

Need time of day for cortisol lab. Should be AM cortisol done at 8AM.
9.6 is border line for AM cortisol.
E2 very high relative to FT. Suggests impaired E2 clearance by the liver, so we look for AST/ALT and need to know about medications, exposure to fumes/toxins, excess alcohol or weed.
You will get better info here than from any doctor and better lab work reading and diagnostic effort.
